摘要: Today, a serious concern about cloud computing is the protection of clients' data and computations against various attacks from outsiders as well provider. Moreover, clients are rather limited in implementing, deploying controlling their own security solutions cloud. The provider theoretically has access to stored keys dormant images during run-time infeasible because authenticating running VM instances not possible. In this paper, we present architecture that allows for establishing secure client-controlled Cryptography-as-a-Service (CaaS) cloud: Our CaaS enables be control provisioning usage credentials cryptographic primitives. They can securely provision or even implement private virtual module (e.g., vHSM SmartCard). All operations run protected client-specific execution domain. This achieved by modifying Xen hypervisor leveraging standard Trusted Computing technology. our solution legacy-compatible installing transparent layer storage network I/O VM. We reduced privileged hypercalls necessary administration 79%. evaluated effectiveness efficiency design which resulted an acceptable performance overhead.
